For a long time I plan to tell in detail about the materials I use for watercolor painting.

So, I'll start with a detailed description of the watercolors "White Nights". Such I use more often, it can be said that the colors of everyday use)

Paints "White Nights", according to the manufacturer, are made of finely ground (finely grated) pigments and a binder with the addition of gum arabic. The paints mix well, blur and spread. When drying, the color fades a bit, like all watercolors. But you do not need to complain about fading). The pigment is collected quite economically from the ditches, so if you need bright saturated colors at once, I recommend that you pre-moisten your paints with clean water. I use a lamp for this purpose, or I leave a drop of clean water in each cell with a brush.

Watercolor is considered a transparent material, but there are more transparent colors, and there is a coating. The first can successfully draw a multilayer glaze, the latter are well suited for drawing muted shadows. For example, the most commonly used paints are called Cadmium, Sepia, Indigo and others.
